Margot Robbie and Tom Ackerley are preparing for the arrival of their first child. As the couple gets closer to the birth of their little one, People cites a source as saying they “can’t wait” to call themselves a family of three. The Barbie star’s pregnancy was confirmed in July when she was seen showing off her baby bump while on vacation with her director husband.
“Margot absolutely can’t wait,” the aforementioned source told the outlet, adding that she and Ackerley “have wanted to be parents for a very long time and are very happy.”
A separate source expressed similar sentiments in July, telling People that the couple had wanted to start a family for a long time and that their wishes were finally coming true. “Family means a lot to both of them, and they knew early on in their relationship that becoming parents was something they really wanted,” the insider told the publication at the time. However, we are happy with the news.”

One of the only people to find out about Robbie’s pregnancy was her Barbie co-star Ariana Greenblatt’s mother, who reportedly had a dream about it.
Speaking to People in August about the bond they formed while filming the billion-dollar Greta Gerwig movie, Greenblatt revealed that her mother, Solly, dreamed of Robbie becoming a mother soon.
The actress told the publication that her mother asked her to message her co-star and confirm the news, which she declined for obvious reasons. However, when she finds out about Robbie’s pregnancy, she runs to him to tell him that his guess was absolutely correct. According to Greenblatt, Solly then smugly declared herself a witch.
